The Maths department at Lincroft Academy benefits from a committed and experienced team, working with enthusiastic students who achieve excellent outcomes at Key Stage 4. The successful candidate will be creative, imaginative and an excellent team player with a proven record of excellence in the classroom. The ability to teach up to GCSE level is essential and experience of teaching at Key Stage 5 would be beneficial.
Lincroft Academy has an excellent reputation locally, and more widely across Bedfordshire and the neighbouring counties. The school is over-subscribed and continues to grow, with demand for places at an all-time high; the future is also exciting as we have joined a highly successful Multi Academy Trust and are planning further growth and a new building project.
The successful candidate will join a school that values and develops all staff, with a commitment to CPD and opportunities to contribute to extra-curricular activities in other areas of interest. We encourage applications from enthusiastic and motivational candidates who share our passion to ensure that every child has the support they need to fulfil their potential.
We can offer:
• the opportunity to join a highly successful and ambitious school;
• a stimulating and creative working environment where extracurricular activities flourish;
• an exceptional CPD provision for all staff, working in collaboration and sharing best practice.
Lincroft Academy reserves the right to either extend or reduce the vacancy window to that advertised depending on volume of applications received. We would therefore recommend early return of completed application forms to avoid disappointment.
Applications from agencies and personal CV’s will not be accepted.

About Lincroft Academy
I am very proud to be Principal at Lincroft Academy. Within our vibrant learning community, we share a common goal; to continually strive for excellence. At Lincroft, we maintain exceptionally high expectations and standards in everything we do, ensuring that our students receive the best possible education. We commit to educating, inspiring and supporting our students so that they can become exceptional learners, confident and empowered to make a rewarding contribution to society.
Our curriculum is designed to seamlessly build upon the foundation laid in primary school, preparing our students for post-16 education. High-quality teaching enables our students to achieve very well. Lincroft Academy now has some of the highest performing GCSE outcomes in Bedford and are above the national average. While we take immense pride in our students’ achievements, we remain committed to continuous improvement.
Every child at Lincroft Academy is known, valued and supported to be the best they can be. Our foremost priority is to create a safe and nurturing environment where students thrive. We promote kindness, respect and good manners, just as families do at home, so that our students can become decent adult citizens. Students at Lincroft are well supported through our House System because they work with the same team of staff throughout their Lincroft journey. This system of support fosters belonging, ensures students are known well and strengthens relationships and communication with families. Our comprehensive Inclusion Hub allows us to provide tailored support to students, regardless of their background or needs. Working alongside each other, being supportive and caring is integral to who we are. Our partnership with parents and carers is highly valued and we know that this is an essential part of a positive educational experience for our students.
Our staff are absolutely committed to the education of our students; they are passionate, dedicated and many of them send their children here too. Some of our ex-students now teach here. This speaks volumes about the sense of community at Lincroft. The opportunities provided at Lincroft are broad and many and, even then, continue to grow; from sports to the arts, business and careers – our curriculum extends very much outside the classroom. Our students consistently excel in sports and the arts, enhancing our strong reputation in these areas.
We are proud to be part of Meridian Trust, who look after a total of 30 academies including many in Bedfordshire. We have access to extensive knowledge, expertise and resource, not just at Lincroft, but across the entire Meridian network. This broader community provides our students with additional opportunities and experiences alongside their peers from other academies. This has also opened up investment opportunities to help modernise the school building and facilities.
As a parent of two children myself, I am personally committed to ensuring that the education we deliver at Lincroft is nothing less than I would accept for my own children. Lincroft Academy is a place where every child has the opportunity to realise their potential. We warmly welcome you to our community.
